అనురా కుమార దిసానాయకే శ్రీలంక అధ్యక్షుడిగా ఎలా గెలుచారు? || How Marxist won Sri Lanka’s Presidency?
How Marxist Anura Kumara Dissanayake won Sri Lanka’s Presidency, erasing a violent past, balancing class struggle and pragmatism
A son of the soil image and dissatisfaction with traditional political parties that have ruled Sri Lanka for over seven decades have buoyed Anura to victory. All eyes are now on how he and his party adapt to the big stage
Anura Kumara Dissanayake, 55, has become a symbol of political transformation in Sri Lanka, rising from a humble rural background to claim the country’s presidency in a groundbreaking election. Anura secured 42.31% of the vote, while Sajith Premadasa followed with 32.71%, and the incumbent president, Ranil Wickremasinghe, garnered just 17.27%.

Born on November 24, 1968, in Galewela, Anura’s early life was marked by his deep connection to the struggles of Sri Lanka’s rural heartland. Unlike many other dynastic or aristocratic leaders rooted in majority Sinhala Buddhist politics, it was not academia or racial-ethnic identity that shaped his future.
